What formats are supported exactly?
cbr (jpeg in rar archive) worked, and epub partially in my first test (just the images).
I was not able to load pdf and chtml documents. It look likes it is targeting image based formats?

Zip, RAR, TAR + folders as "containers" and png, jpeg, bmp, gif, tiff and xpm should be supported as image formats.
Container type is detected using magic numbers, images are identified based on extension (as there might be a few hundred of them in a container, so checking their magic numbers would be too slow).
Support for more container & image formats can be added, if technically feasible.

Well, I'm quite surprised that it did even that. It has probably just detected the epub as a zip container and then showed all images it could find in it.

Yep - for now. I'm thinking about adding support for PDF, if I can find a suitable library for it.

Looks very promising! Maybe a transparent fullscreen button could be nice, so you don't have to open the keyboard to exit fullscreen mode. Or even better no button just touching the four corners, like top left = menu, top right = fullscreen, bottom left/right = prev/next.

@install failing
Looks like I made a typo yesterday when enabling kinetic scrolling by default. I have just uploaded a fixed version (1.00-4) so everything should be alright now.
In case the update won't install due to the failed installation, you might want to try this from the CLI (as root):

Code:

apt-get update
apt-get remove mieru
apt-get install mieru

There is a transparent fullscreen button in the bottom right corner (per Maemo convention).
BTW, so that fullscreen is not toggled by accident, you have to press it twice - first to show up and then to activate.

Aren't PDBs just compressed text files?
